Sally is a 4-year-old Olde Victorian Bulldog that desperately needs a family to call her own. Sally is definitely a “Velcro dog.” She wants to be near her person at all times. She will follow you from room to room — wherever you go, that’s where she wants to be. Sally is very laid back and mellow, all she wants to do is give and receive lots and lots of love. She is super sweet with people, including children, but requires to be the only pet, since she does not care for other animals at all. She would do best in a home with someone who works from home or is retired, someone who could give her lots of attention. Sally is house-trained and walks on a leash, is heartworm-negative and up to date on all vaccines.

Bandit is a handsome orange tabby male. He is outgoing and friendly, likes to play. Bandit is up to date on all his shots, FeLeuk and FIV negative and neutered. He is also house-trained. He would love to join your family.
